Overview
UCL's igem team got in touch with us in May about a collaboration with their project to make a biobrick that could help to clean up plastic floating in the ocean. From August the biohackers have been working with them to develop a 'public biobrick' (ie. one developed outside of the traditional university or research lab). This biobrick contains antifreeze and mercuric reductase genes from the marine bacteria Oceanibulbus Indofilex.
